Weekend Wildcard - Estranged by Guns N' Roses

This Weekend's Wildcard is brought to you by Guns N' Roses. This comes off of their 1993 Use Your Illusions II album and clocks in at almost 10 minutes. This song features some great work by Slash who has stated that recording guitar for this track was very intensive. The liner notes in the album thanked Slash for "the killer guitar melodies", which captured Axl Rose's vision.

This video was the third installment of a series of videos inspired by Del James from the two Use Your Illusion albums. Del James is a close friend of Axl's and is the road manager for the band. The previous two were Don't Cry and November Rain. Any video that contains Slash rising from the ocean to break into an awesome guitar solo is okay in my book.
